Hello. I had the thinkpoint virus a few days ago and managed to fix it by following a guide that DoctorInferno posted somewhere (may have been on another forum or site). My computer is now acting strange and it still seems like something is wrong. For example it isn't reading flash drives and it will not open them, IE won't open, Firefox tries to take me to a fake google, etc. Smaller things like this that aren't hindering me from using the PC, but are annoying and make me fear that I am still infected with something. Please help me out if you can, Malwarebytes isn't picking up any infections and Avast isn't picking up any infections either. I ran OTL and have got the logfiles here:---------

Make sure a checkmark is placed next to Update Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware and Launch Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware, then click Finish.

If an update is found, it will download and install the latest version.

Once the program has loaded, select "Perform Quick Scan", then click Scan.

The scan may take some time to finish,so please be patient.

When the scan is complete, click OK, then Show Results to view the results.

Make sure that everything is checked, and click Remove Selected.

When disinfection is completed, a log will open in Notepad and you may be prompted to Restart. (See Note)

The log is automatically saved by MBAM and can be viewed by clicking the Logs tab in MBAM.

Note:If MBAM encounters a file that is difficult to remove, you will be presented with 1 of 2 prompts.Click OK to either and let MBAM proceed with the disinfection process.If asked to restart the computer, please do so immediately.

1. If you are using Firefox, make sure that your download settings are as follows:

* Tools->Options->Main tab * Set to "Always ask me where to Save the files".

2. During the download, rename Combofix to svchost as follows:

3. It is important you rename Combofix during the download, but not after.4. Please do not rename Combofix to other names, but only to the one indicated.5. Close any open browsers.6. We need to disable your local AV (Anti-virus) before running Combofix.

See HERE for how to disable your AV.

Double click on svchost.exe.

Follow the prompts. NOTE:

Allow combofix to run

Post C:\combofix.txt back here.

Note:Do not mouse click combofix's window whilst it's running. That may cause it to stall.

I see that you are running FrostWire.P2P(Peer to peer) applications are designed to help you easily share and distribute files between you and a group of people. But they can also be used to distribute malware, and thus are not considered safe.The removal of these programs is optional, but highly recommended.

You are also running two antivirus', I see from the uninstall list you have Avast installed, along with AVG. This is a bad idea as they can conflict and cause more problems. I would recommend that you remove AVG to avoid conflict and other future problems.
